What the lab has learned from client work, researched and shipped, written for the leaders deciding how AI lands in their company.

Now

What the lab has released, reached and published, by date.

  1. Nauvo is in the App Store

    Nauvo, a ninety-second naval duel for mobile, is released on the App Store as version 1.0.

  2. Paper: does the EU AI Act apply to your Swiss company?

    How the EU AI Act reaches Swiss companies: the revised phasing after the June 2026 Digital Omnibus, the penalty tiers and the Swiss sector-by-sector approach.

  3. Paper: GxP and AI in 2026, what is validated

    What is settled in GxP validation for AI systems: GAMP 5, the July 2025 ISPE AI guide and the draft EU GMP Annex 22.

Field notes

Short pieces from the work: writing an evaluation before a build, why pilots stall, keeping sensitive data away from a model. Each cites its sources. Swiss figures are labelled Swiss, global figures industry data.

  1. · Data protection · 7 min readWhy architecture beats policy for sensitive data and AIA data processing agreement and a policy on what not to paste into a chat window can both be forgotten. An anonymize-before-inference architecture cannot. Why that matters under FADP, and how the pattern works.
  2. · Evaluation · 7 min readEvaluation before you buildDefining the evaluation before writing production code is what separates a proof of value from a proof of concept. What that looks like, using a 117-case adversarial allergen-safety harness gating merges at a 100% pass rate.
  3. · Strategy · 6 min readWhy AI pilots never reach productionIndustry data shows most AI proof-of-concepts get scrapped before they reach production. Six failure patterns, each mapped to the stage of a project that catches it before it gets expensive.

Papers

Longer reading for the people who sign off: compliance, legal, quality and security. Each paper states the date its position was last checked, because the rules keep moving. Not legal advice; take it to your own counsel.

  1. Reference · as of October 2026AI regulation in Switzerland · a referencerevFADP, the EU AI Act’s reach into Switzerland, the Swiss sector-by-sector approach, GxP and sector rules for AI systems, with dates and primary sources.
  2. Does the EU AI Act apply to your Swiss company?A structured guide to the EU AI Act’s extraterritorial reach into Switzerland: the two triggers that pull a Swiss company into scope, the revised phasing after the June 2026 Digital Omnibus, the real penalty tiers, and how this interacts with Switzerland’s own regulatory approach.
  3. GxP and AI in 2026: what is validatedGAMP 5 predates adaptive AI. ISPE only published its dedicated AI guide in July 2025. EU GMP Annex 22 closed consultation in October 2025 and is not yet adopted. A structured look at what is settled in GxP validation for AI systems, and where vendors overclaim.
